<p>Various kinds of content came about with this trend. Surpisingly, majority of the users confessed that they literally did nothing casual beforehand because they knew that their current partner was "The One." They explained that they started hitting it off just days or weeks after they met and deeply fell in love with each other.</p>
<p>On the other hand, other users shared actually experiencing casual stages with their partners such as talking for seven months, being stuck in the friend zone, gifting a 17k carat ring, and flying out of their country just to meet them among many more stories.</p>
<p>Whether you're diving straight into a relationship or trying a non-committal relationship, either way, you'll eventually know who you would want to be with for a long time. Just always remember to take care of your heart and yourself. Ensure that both of you are on the same boat to avoid losing yourself in the process.</p>
